itle of the practice : widening access to higher education. 2.Goal : • To provide qualitative and effective teaching. • To create equality and access to its students from all sections of society. • It is a policy of the state government which is practiced by the College with highest priority. 3. The Context: The College established to cater to the demands of providing higher education especially to Mohana Block. This Block is adjacent to three districts like Rayagada , Kandhamal and Ganjam. The college has to deal with hundreds of students every year. Apart from this most of the students are belonging to ST & SC and Minority categories who have agricultural/daily labour family background . keeping these local needs in mind, the college has taken some strategies for widening access to higher education. There are 17 employees in the college. It involves a good number of Non-Teaching staff to provide service like admission, examination and other works. 4. The Practice: Some reflections of the strategies adopted to widen access to higher education to a wide range of rural community students from ST/SC / minority community and economically weaker section of the society are mention below. It helps to create equality and access to higher education. Reservation of seats for ST/SC student during admission as per state Govt. guideline. The college follows the Berhampur University(Affiliating university) norms. There is no cut-off per cartage at council +2 level for applying against the reserved seat. Post-metric scholarship is provided to ST/SC and minority students for ten months in a year. Best Practices-2
1. Title of the Practice: Participate decision making process. 2. Goal: To achieve the vision and mission of the institution. To involve staff and students in academic pursuit. Offering selective liberty to students. To build a healthy institutional culture. To ensure transparency in academic, finance and administration activities. 3. The Context.
It is the extent to which the college management (Governing Body) allows and encourages the stakeholders to share and participate in the institutional decision making.
